Removing EWAR only balances things on the Amarr/Minmatar front (and probably not very well either). It doesn't do **** to help us, and we're dealing with the same thing. We're starting to get a corps of people who hunt these guys but the smart ones just fit all stabs and warp off to the next plex a few systems over. Ask anyone who goes after them and they'll link you killmails with 10mn AB frigs, no gun frigs, all nanos, all of them running major plexes without a problem. We need a proper solution sooner rather than later. |

EWAR doesn't change a thing about farming except for the Amarr militia. EWAR removal will be very nice for pvp, but outside of the Amarr militia changes (which will be significant) it'll be the same old imbalances. yeah because i didnt catch this http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=13697207 offensive plexing other night...... of course on caldari t1's doing majors /sarcasim off
That alt requires pretty damn good tanking/cap skills to run any type of Caldari plex. Also I was testing a fit that we can use to counter your all's ridiculous farming in our back end systems without need to reship or even use ammo.
Also, while we're linking farmer killmails, here's an interesting one: http://gallente.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=13573778
I wonder how much SP it takes to run something like that? And to put it in context, he was easily tanking one of our major plexes. |

Except....I see week old toons comfortably running major plexes out here so you screaming about "skill points needed" is hilarious in the least.
Complete bullshit. How about a screenshot to prove it?
The fit's I've got can be used by lower sp chars, but certainly not week old alts. Major outposts are barely tankable with low skills, anything higher than that isn't going to happen. It's obvious to everyone that you have no interest in a fair and competitive FW, so please just spare everyone the boredom of reading your biased drivel so we can stop reading what we already knew you were going to say. |

It's already forced PVE. Orbiting a timer is a PVE activity unless someone actually shows up to fight. People have realized that they can simply keep running and the enemy will get tired of chasing them. One of the big issues right now is that they're actually rewarded for running, because the person who chased them out has to sit on the timer of the original plex just to run it back down a bit, let alone complete it himself. In the time it would take to complete the plex, the player originally running his offensive plex can complete an entirely new one in another system.
This scenario happens all over FW space and it's the crux of why the system is so goddamn frustrating. People who have zero willingness to fight and fit stabs, cloaks, all kinds of **** on their ships are winning the occupancy war. If we could make it so that the timer runs back to neutral automatically, instead of forcing the defender/attacker to physically sit on the button for longer than it takes to cap a new plex in another system, that would go a long way towards making farming/speed tanking fits less effective.
I think everyone knows what needs to be done, more or less. The issue now is when are we going to get it? Because these imbalances and bad mechanics are killing us right now. If we have to wait for winter for a fix we may not hold on that long. |
